new addition to her family.
She has a foster son named

Is the pioneer woman, Rhee
Drummond,
Hey Rhee, good, to see you
good morning.
How are you Ainsley e,
the
Ainsley Good morning?
I love this story.
You reveal in the book about
your foster son.
Tell us about that experience!
Well, yes, thats! Really, the
first time that ive introduced
Jamar to the world
laughter
hes been living with us for
about a year and a half, and it
wasnt something that my husband
and I had ever really sought out
to do necessarily felt called to
do, but the circumstances
presented themselves to us and
hes basically been a
full fledged part of our family
for over a year and a half
because of regulations with
state agencies. You know I
needed to not talk about Jamar
publicly and also I was pretty
protective of him and I didnt
want to just suddenly you know,
put him on my social media and
then put him in the public life
but hes. Eighteen now and he started
sort of saying I feel like
youre, hiding me from the world
laughter
so once he turned eighteen, I felt
like it was time to share and
hes very happy to have his
story told
Ainsley yeah.
Well, I know that you are so
blessed to have him in your
family,
but gosh he got a great family
too.
I know he is just pinching
himself.
This is probably a dream. Come
true for him, a beautiful story
and in the book you talk about
your marriage and parenting
during Corona
share one of your favorite
stories with us.
Oh ors, gosh
well see. I was writing this
book when the sort of shutdown
happened and everything went
down in March,
and so you know I had sent two
girls off and the boys were
really busy, we football and
school.
So I had this nice life for
myself, where the house was empty
most of the day,
and so I was writing this book
essays of my life and then
everybody came home and it was
you know my adult daughter, my
college daughter, my adult
daughter, Alexs boyfriend, my
nephew and then, of course, my
two teenage boys plus my new son,
Jamar
laughter.
So our house was full.
I have to mention that all of
the aforementionedded kids are
over six feet tall, pretty much
laughter.
So you know it was
Ainsley. Look at that gorgeous
family
all right.
I know youre making something.
What is that
is that a recipe you came up
with during quarantine?
It actually is Ainsley.
So I call this sandwich the best
sandwich I made during
quarantine, but its actually
probably the best sandwich ive
ever made
and its one of those things
that feeds a crowd,
its chuck roast. You dump a
couple of bottles of
pepperoncini in some italian
seasoning and you cook it down
low.
So I put it on top of a toasted
bun and I toss it with
provolone. Stick it under the
broiler and then Heres what
really makes it the best
sandwich ive ever made. I
caramelized onions and I put
those on top of the melted
cheese
laughter,
and so my daughter, Alex her
boyfriend Maurice, owe was home
during this march, Slash April time
frame with us, and I made this
sandwich and then he proposed to
my daughter
so id like to take credit for
that
laughter.
Ainsley. Oh, congratulations!
Now you have a wedding to plan.
Well, congratulations!
The book is called, I know
its so exciting.
Gosh you did a great job.
Raising those kids
all right, frontier follies is
now on sale.
You can pick that up. Please go
support her career shes, a.
